FIFA World Cup 2022

In December 2010 it was announced that Qatar will be hosting the
FIFA World Cup in 2022. Qatar competed against the likes of England
and was eventually successful in winning the bid to host the 2022
Soccer World Cup. This will be the first world cup hosted by an
Arab nation. Top teams from across the globe will compete for the
coveted Jules Rimet Trophy. Some of the top football teams in the
world include Argentina, Brazil, England, France, Germany, Italy,
Spain and the Netherlands. The desert country has plans for
air-conditioned stadiums as well as stadiums built on reclaimed
'islands' in the Arabian Gulf. Although it was a controversial
decision to award the 2022 FIFA World Cup to Qatar, the country is
looking forward to the development of its tourism infrastructure
that hosting such an event will entail.
